03 November 2003 <br /> AGE-NC Project No. 03-1055 <br /> Page 2 of 6 <br /> The estimated depth to ground water at the property is approximately 10 feet below surface grade <br /> (bsg),based on the map titled Lines of Equal Depth to Groundwater Spring 1996 published by the <br /> San Joaquin County Flood Control District and Water Conservation District(FCD&WCD). Based <br /> upon a previous investigation performed by AGE,ground water depth at the site ranges between 10 <br /> and 12 feet bsg. It is inferred from the map titled Lines of Equal Elevation of Groundwater Spring <br /> 1996, also published by the FCD&WCD, that ground water flows toward the northwest in the <br /> general area of the site, but this may be modified by changing recharge and discharge patterns. <br /> Ground water is considered to be of beneficial use and is used for domestic, industrial and <br /> commercial purposes. <br /> 2.2. UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK REMOVAL <br /> A UST gasoline system reportedly operated on the site for approximately thirty years from 1940 <br /> until 1970. The UST system is assumed to have been removed after 1970, however, no records of <br /> the UST removal are available with the Tracy Fire Department, Tracy Building Department or the <br /> SJCEHD. <br /> 2.3. PREVIOUS SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION <br /> On 04 May 2000, five soil probe borings were advanced at the site under observation by a <br /> representative of the SJCEHD. The probe borings were advanced in the former USTs excavation <br /> and the southern and central dispenser islands and two locations which are in the assumed <br /> hydrogeologic down-gradient location.All borings were advanced to depths of 20 feet bsg.A`grab' <br /> ground water was collected and analyzed from each soil boring. <br /> TPH-g was detected in soil samples in the former dispensers area and to a lesser degree in the former <br /> UST excavation. The depth limits of hydrocarbon-impacted soil was approximately 15 feet bsg and <br /> above 20 feet bsg. Table 1 summarizes the analytical data of the soil sample analyzed. <br /> TPH-g was detected in all grab ground water samples at concentrations ranging from 370 gg/l in <br /> sample B 1-1120 to 55,000µg/1 in sample 113-1120.Excluding sample 135-1120,benzene was detected <br /> in the remaining samples at concentrations ranging from 0.54 µg/1 in sample B 1-1120 to 160 µg/1 in <br /> sample 133-1120. Toluene was detected in all five ground water samples at concentrations ranging <br /> from 11 to 25 µg/1. Ethylbenzene was detected in sample B3-H20 at 58 µg/1 and sample 134-1120 at <br /> 2.5 µg/1.Xylenes were only detected in samples B2-H2O,133-1120 and 134-1120 at concentrations of <br /> 230 µg/1, 120 µg/1 and 1.9 µg/1, respectively. MTBE was not detected in any of the ground water <br /> samples. In addition, the remaining fuel oxygenates were not detected in sample B3-1120. <br /> Advanced GeoEnvironmen[al,Inc. <br />
